Sky + buffering all the time

Recently when I watch football on sky+ it constantly starts to buffer. This has only started doing this in the last month or so. What has changed I have the same sky broadband as before so what has changed. It is very annoying.

Can you explain further what's happening.

 

Sky+ (where you've posted) doesn't stream anything, so the concept of buffering doesn't exist. Live sport is only broadcast via the satellite dish.

When I go on to the apps menu and select sky sports and watch a football game I assume that is then streaming the program.

@daydavid58 not on Sky+ boxes, where you've posted. Sky+ boxes don't stream and can't host apps.

 

Do you have Sky Q with a satellite dish? Or Sky Stream with an internet-connected Puck?
